I went with 8X15 (255/60) with 4.5in backspace & 10X15 (275/60) with 5in backspace.... figured I could always add spacers but couldn't tuck in if not enough backspace.
For my front end, with dropped spindle/72 disc brake conversion), 4.5 was too much as it just scraped the caliper.... put a quarter inch spacer on fronts.
For the back I could of gotten away with 4in backspace (guess I have one of the narrow rear ends). I already had 1 inch spacers on the back and just left them on.
